      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Margaret Hall (Swinton) goes off

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture exhibits sharp and detailed images with excellent contrast and shadow delineation. Colors are rich and well balanced, with natural fleshtones and deep blacks. The picture is quite clean, with minimal distractions. Edge enhancement is noticed, but is generally not too bothersome, and there is some minor pixelization. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #3 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review is the complete audio-video journal. Its reviews on hardware are in-depth with an excellent mixture of technical and non-technical information. Its choice of reviews also deals with products which may not be mainstream or mass market but still of interest.
